Final Arica Cultura 2022

El Gringo, Flopos – Mayo 2022

A HISTORICAL ACHIEVEMENT

For my come back on the World Tour in 2022, my first step is Arica (Chile). It all begins by a sort of a bliss coming down on El Gringo (Flopos), one of my favoutite wave on the Tour.

In insane conditions, with a huge physical effort to give, all high-leveld riders getting big scores and a big motivation are the elements of this unforgetable day .
I take advantage of every step of the contest to surf these powerful waves so inspiring for me.

Just have a look on this video that summarizes the sequence of the series and towards the unforgetable 20-point final.

This day was a special one, as I was back on the World Tour, I realized that when you are focused, when you ride  with your skill and your mind, repecting and defying  your opponents and the wave you are riding, you can go high.  Believe in you, work hard and do it.

2018 – FRONTON KING Final Day Video

Gran Canaria, Galdar, October 2018

TAKING BACK MY CROWN

The Fronton King 2018 is a World Cup form and is not part of the APB round, following disagreements with the organisers.
So there are few riders of the World Tour but the level is really high, with guests of choice as Dave Hubbard, André Botha and Guillerme Tamega who are not the least.
Above all, there are many canarian riders who know the spot perfectly and are serious challengers.

Among the stages of the World Tour, the Fronton is the one where the local riders have the highest level.
The 2018 edition offers a prize money of 12,000 to the winner, the strongest in the history of bodyboarding.
For my part, I do not hesitate a minute, with a prize money like this on one of the waves best suited to our sport.
And I want to win.

The organisation and the promotion of the event is perfect, worthy of the world level : live webcasts and comments,  interviews, press realise, concert, demonstration in schools…
The fan-zone on the cliff is crowdy and the online audience is high-level .
During the comp, I keep my hand throughout the heats, I’m really focused and motivated to win. 
In the semi-finals, I take tamega out with 18,57 pts and I am happy to face Jonathan Vega, a strong canarian rider, in the final.

During the final, I begin with a 7 followed by an 8-pts wave. Jonathan answers me with a 7,1 pts.
I find a good left tube + invert + rollo scoring 9,5 pts. Jonathan is in a combo position.
However, five minutes later I get a huge tube on a solid right and deep barrel catching 10 pts.
When the bell rings, the socre is 19,5 pts for me and 15,2 for Jonathan Vega.

On this tricky and powerful spot, tension and concentration are essential to succeed.
Now the pressure is dropping. Emotion overwhelms me. My heart is full.

Fronton is a kingdom to be conquered constantly…

A GOOD DEAL ON GOOD WAVES

I arrive in Arica, on July 2016, and I want  to score high and be in the final.

MOTIVATION – Today is The Day

KEEP YOUR GOAL & TRAIN HARD
During my last trip in Australia in 2016, I spent long moments alone and I decided to train in any conditions.
Tyge Landa is an excellent film editor and he filmed my training in full nature with a brand new camera with a slow motion system…
Just don’t only ride waves but push your body to the limits. Bodyboarding is much more than riding, its a lifestyle, an art and a motivation to wake up every morning with the will to go further, harder and stronger.

2015 – ARICA – Videos and highlights

August 2015, Chile

Videos for great memories

In the video produced by Boca Negra, we can celebrate my 10th year in Arica. It is a tribute to El Floppos, one of the best wave for bodyboarding in the world.
This spot is definitely a waves machine and a bombs raiser.

The 2015 Arica Chilean Challenge edition has been completely crazy with big scores for many competitors.
I was feeling focused, very motivated and the level of the waves and riders whet my appetite for 
fighting and ripping.
A big tribute to 
Jared Houston for this red-letter final who showed to anyone that even when everything seems to be lost, you must never give up.

Hope that through these videos you will see what bodyboarding really is : strong riding,  big focus and real friendship.

So long Arica. I already miss you. See you again and again.

Thanks to BOCA NEGRA for editing the video.
Thanks to Igor Sanchez, Jessica Becker and Nicolas Diaz for filming.
